MANILA, Philippines - It will be the ladies’ turn to showcase their running skills as they take the road stage on June 27 in the Team Woman Run at the Venice Piazza Mall at McKinley Hill.
The event, presented by Woman by Lactacyd, is a four-woman team relay spread over 21K or half marathon distance and divided into four legs – a 10K run, a 5K and two 3K races.
What makes the race interesting is that each team captain will be given the option to choose who to field in the longer route, the middle distance and the shorter ones.
The event, held to encourage women, including those achievers in their respective fields, to take up running as an inexpensive, convenient sport for a healthy lifestyle, features teams with three or four members aged 18-45 years old. A participant is allowed to run twice only in the first and last legs of the event backed by 100 Plus, Alaska Slim, Beauty Bar, Bluewater Day Spa, David’s Salon, Dole, Summit and Timex and media partners Multisport, Runnerspeak and Women’s Health.
Registration is ongoing and will end June 24 at Timex North Edsa, Timex MOA, Timex Southmall and Runnr Bonifacio High Street, according to the organizing Eventking Corp.
Fees are pegged at P1,000 per team with two bottles of Woman by Lactacyd 200ml and proof of purchase (bottle and receipt) and P1,500 without proof or purchase. Online registration is also available on www.teamwomanrun.com.
